Ventilation Air
The following notes are intended to give general guidance. For detailed
recommendations, refer to the applicable code(s) in the country of
destination.
Proper ventilation is critical for optimum performance. The ideal method of
ventilating open-top equipment is the use of a properly designed canopy that
should extend six inches (152 mm), beyond all sides of the appliance(s) and
six feet, six inches (1981mm) above the floor.
A strong exhaust will create a vacuum in the room. For an exhaust vent to work
properly, replacement air must be equal to the amount of air exhausted. An
imbalance between the exhaust and replacement air can cause degradation in the
appliance’s performance.
All gas burners and pilots need sufficient air to operate. Large objects
should not be placed in front of the appliance(s) that would obstruct the flow
of air into the front.
Statutory Regulations
The installation of this appliance must be carried out by
a competent person and in accordance with the relevant regulations, codes of
practice and the related publications of the country of destination.
The installation must conform to the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1, or
latest edition, NFPA No.54 – latest edition/or local code to assure safe and
efficient operation. In Canada, the installation must comply with CSA B149.1
and local codes.
Gas Connection
The local gas authority should be consulted at the installation planning stage
in order to establish the availability of an adequate supply of gas and to
ensure
that the meter is adequate for the required flow rate. The pipework from the
meter to the appliance must be an appropriate size.
All fixed (non-mobile) appliances MUST be fitted with an accessible upstream
gas shut-off valve as a means of isolating the appliance for emergency shut-
off and for servicing. A union or similar means of disconnection must be
provided between the gas-cock and the appliance.
A manually operable valve must be fitted to the gas supply to the kitchen to
enable it to be isolated in an emergency. Wherever practical, this shall be
located either outside the kitchen or near to an exit in a readily accessible
position.
Where it is not practical to do this, an automatic isolation valve system
shall be fitted which can be operated from a readily accessible position near
to the exit.
In locations where the manual isolation valve is fitted or the automatic
system can be reset this notice MUST be posted:
“ALL DOWNSTREAM BURNER AND PILOT VALVES MUST
BE TURNED OFF PRIOR TO ATTEMPTING TO RESTORE THE SUPPLY. AFTER EXTENDED SHUT-
OFF, PURGE BEFORE RESTORING GAS.”
Electrical Connections (Where Applicable)
IMPORTANT- This appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with
local codes, or in the absence of local codes with the National Electrical
Code.
220/240 Volt Convection Oven Models When the appliance is ordered and equipped
for 220/240-volt operation, the supply line must be connected to the wiring
terminations located inside the terminal box at the rear of the appliance. For
ease of attaching the supply line, there is a removable cover on the terminal
box.
Permanent connection to the electrical service must comply with local codes,
or in the absence of local codes, with the national electrical code.
Installation Notes
Before assembly and connection, check gas supply.
- A. The type of gas for which the unit is equipped is stamped on the data plate located behind the lower front panel. Connect a unit stamped “NAT” only to natural gas; connect one stamped “PRO” only to propane gas.
- B. If it is a new installation have the gas authorities check meter size and piping to assure that the unit is supplied with the necessary amount of gas pressure required to operate the unit.
- C. If it is additional or replacement equipment has the gas authorities check the pressure to make certain that the existing meter and piping will supply fuel to the unit with no more than 0.15 Kpa pressure drop.
- D. Make certain new piping and connections have been made in a clean manner and have been purged so that piping compound, chips, etc. will not clog pilots, valves or burners. Use pipe joint compound approved for natural and liquefied petroleum gases.
NOTE : Gas pressure should be checked when the unit is installed and all
other equipment on the same line is on. The operating gas pressure must be the
same as that specified on the rating plate. If necessary, pressure adjustment
may be made at the pressure regulator supplied with the appliance.
The appliance and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system where
pressures are in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.45kPa.)
Final Preparation
NOTE: Your new range has a plastic coating to help protect the finish
from scratches during shipping. This protective plastic film should be peeled
off prior to starting the range.
TESTING AND ADJUSTMENT
Testing
All fittings and pipe connections must be tested for leaks. Use approved gas
leak detectors, soap solution or equivalent, checking over and around all the
fittings and pipe connections. DO NOT USE A FLAME! Accessibility to all gas
lines and fittings requires that valve panel(s) lower front panel(s), and/or
oven rack(s) be removed. It may be necessary to remove, or at least raise and
securely prop griddle(s), hot top(s), and/or top grate(s). All parts removed,
(including fasteners), should be stored safely for re-installation.
- Be sure that all valves and thermostats are in the “OFF” position.
- Turn on the main gas supply valve. Light all top section beginning of this section. Correct any leaks as required and recheck. pilots.
- Leak test all valves and fittings as described at the beginning of this section. Correct any leaks as required and recheck.
- Light the oven pilot.
- Set the oven thermostat to maximum. Leak test all valves and fittings as described at the beginning of this section. Correct any leaks as required and recheck.
- Shut off all valves and set thermostat dials to “OFF” or the lowest position. All units are tested and adjusted at the factory, however, burners and pilots should be checked upon installation and adjusted if necessary.
CAUTION: Gas will flow to the top section burners even if top section pilots are not lit, except for thermostat-controlled griddles. Gas will not be interrupted. It is the responsibility of the operator to confirm the proper ignition of each burner as it is turned on. Should ignition fail to occur 4 seconds after turning a burner on, turn the burner off, wait 5 minutes, and try again.
OPERATION
Caution: In the event that a binding malfunction valve or thermostat control is observed DO NOT light the pilots or continue operation until an authorized service technician has inspected the appliance. Failure to do so may result in injury.
Open Top burners
Lighting
- Light pilots adjacent to each burner.
- Turn valve completely on. The burner flame should be 1/2” (13mm) high, stable and blue in color. It should also impinge on the bottom of a pot placed on the burner grate.
- While holding the knob in, light the pilot with a match/BBQ lighter or use the spark ignition (if provided) to spark ignite pilot.
- Continue to hold the knob in for 15 seconds after ignition, then release. The pilot should remain lit.
- If pilot burner fails to light or does not stay lit, wait 5 minutes and repeat steps 2 through 4.
- Replace the hearth and close kick panel, then turn oven thermostat to desired cooking temperature.
- To shut down the main burner turn the control knob (figure 1) to the “ ” position.
Shut Down
If the pilot shutdown is required loosen the set screw on the knob and remove the outer temperature thermostat knob by carefully pulling it off. Then push in and turn the inner control knob (figure 2) to the position. The system will disengage within 60 seconds. Figure 2
Convection Ovens
The forced air range oven consists of a food preparation chamber completely
sealed from the combustion area. This eliminates the possibility of
contamination from flue products and permits an efficient method of
circulating the heated air within the cooking chamber.
During the cooking process in a conventional oven, a vapor barrier and a layer
of “cool” air cover the exposed area of the product. In a forced air oven, the
fan pushes the heated air over and around the product, sweeping away the vapor
barrier and cool air, permitting faster heat penetration. This action permits
the use of lower temperatures and shorter cooking times.
The rule of thumb for determining the cooking temperature is to reduce the set
temperature by approximately
80°F, (28°C), from that which you would set in a conventional oven. The
product should be checked at a point midway in the time required in a
conventional oven.
Lighting
- Lower front kick panel below oven door.
- Push and hold in oven thermostat control valve knob (figure 1) and turn it counterclockwise to the ignition position “ ”.
- While holding knob fully in depress the red igniter button and observe that the pilot flame is lit.
- When the pilot is lit, continue to hold the valve knob fully in for 10 seconds, then release it. If the pilot goes out, wait for five (5) minutes, then repeat steps 2 to 4.
Start-Up
- Set the power switch to the “COOK” position.
- Turn the thermostat to the desired setting.
Cool down
- Turn the oven valve knob to the “ ” position this will prevent the main oven burner from cycling on. (figure 1). 2. Turn the thermostat to its lowest setting.
- Open the oven door.
- Set the power switch to the “COOL DOWN” position. 5. Once the oven has cooled turn the power switch to off and close the oven door.
Shut Down
- If the pilot shutdown is required loosen the set screw on the knob and remove the outer temperature thermostat knob by carefully pulling it off. Then push in and turn the inner control knob (figure 2) to the position. The system will disengage within 60 seconds.
- Power switch should be in the off position.
Operating Suggestions
The motor in your range convection oven is maintenance-free since it is
constructed with self-lubricating sealed ball bearings. It is designed to
provide durable service when treated with ordinary care. We have a few
suggestions to follow for the care of your motor.
- When the motor is operating, it cools itself internally by air entering the rear of the motor case, provided proper clearance has been allowed.
- Since the blower wheel is in the oven cavity it is at the same temperature as the oven. If the motor is stopped while the oven is hot, the heat from the blower wheel is conducted down the shaft and into the armature of the motor. This action could shorten motor life.
- We recommend, at the end of the bake or roasting period, when the oven will be idle for any period of time or before shutting down completely, that the doors be left open, and by use of the cool-down position on the fan switch, the fan continues to run for at least 20 minutes. The “FAN” should never be turned “OFF” when the oven is “HOT”.
Hot Top Sections
-
Raise or remove hot top plate section(s). Each burner has
one pilot located at the front left side of the burner. -
Light pilots. The pilot burner should be adjusted to
provide for rapid ignition of the burner. -
Turn the burner valve on. A sharp blue flame should be
approximately 1/4-inch, (6mm), high. -
Replace hot top sections.
Thermostat Controlled Griddles
See griddle seasoning before use.
- For general thermostat griddle lighting instructions please refer to the section entitled “OVEN (STANDARD)” above. (Steps 2 through 7)
- Pilots should be lit through the front panel with an extended match. If necessary the front panel of the range can be removed to allow the griddle plates to be raised at the front, and block securely.
- Light pilots located at the front left side of each burner
- The sensing bulbs must be fully inserted into their individual holders, which are located on the underside of the griddle. To check the griddle burner flame set the thermostat to its maximum setting and then return to the pilot.
- If the griddle has been raised to light the pilots, lower carefully into position, being very careful not to leave any part of the capillary tube in the burner compartment. Replace the front panel of the range.
Valve Controlled Griddles
See griddle seasoning before use.
-
Pilots should be lit through the front panel with an extended match. If necessary the front panel of the range can be removed to allow the griddle plates to be raised at the front, and block securely.
-
Light pilots located at the front left side of each burner.
-
Turn burner valves completely on. Burners should have
1/2-inch to 5/8-inch, (13mm to 16mm), stable blue flame. -
If the griddle has been raised, lower it carefully into position and replace the front panel of the range.
Griddle/Broiler
(Models G60-6R24RR, G60-6R24SS, G60-6R24RS,
G60-6R24CC, G60-6R24CR & G60-6R24CS)
See griddle seasoning before use.
Before turning on main gas supply, be sure all burner valves are in the “OFF”
position.
- Eight (8) ceramic bricks are supplied with each range. These ceramics are to be placed in the burner section of the griddle/broiler before it is put into operation.
- Each burner has a flange on each side which will serve as a rest for a pair of ceramics. Position two ceramics between each pair of burners with the projections facing downward. Place two ceramics between the outside burner on each side, using the sidelining ledges as the outer support.
- Light the pilots located in the broiler section.
- Turn the burner valves completely on. Burners should exhibit a 5/16-inch stable blue flame.
NOTE: If burners need adjustment contact an authorized licensed gas technician.
Range Shut down
- Turn all valves to the “OFF” position.
- If the unit is to be shut down for an extended period of time, close the in-line gas valve.
PRODUCT APPLICATION INFORMATION
General
The range is the workhorse of the kitchen because of its versatility. Most
frequently used in small applications, such as cafes, schools, church
kitchens, firehouses, and small nursing homes where demands are less taxing.
As a general rule of thumb, one four to the six-burner range with a hot top
will be adequate for a restaurant seating 30 to 35.
The top of the range is designed for flexibility and the preparation of
numerous different types of products. It may be equipped with two, or even
three different types of tops and burners, depending on the menu needs. An
operation that cooks to order, or uses the range primarily as a backup will
find that open burners will suit most of their needs.
Preparation of soups, stocks, or sauces is done on a hot top where slow, even
cooking is desirable.
Heating larger quantities of food can be done more efficiently than heating
small quantities. Pots and pans should be covered whenever possible to reduce
energy consumption.
High-acid sauces, such as tomato should be cooked in stainless steel rather
than aluminum to avoid chemical reactions. Light-colored sauces such as
Alfredo may be discolored by the use of aluminum, especially if stirred with a
metal spoon or whip. Saltwater shellfish may pit aluminum pots if they are
frequently used for this purpose.
NOTE: Many parts of the commercial range are raw steel. Hot tops,
griddles, springs, door hooks etc., can react with moisture forming rust. This
occurrence is normal and not considered a defect. Clean with a stainless steel
or fiber pad. A light coating of cooking oil may be applied.
Open Burners
The most traditional uses of open burners are sautéing, pan frying, and small
stock pot work. Short-term cooking is the most efficient use for the open
burner. Pans should cover as much of the grate as possible to minimize heat
loss. The maximum stock pot size to be used on an open burner is 12 inches,
(305mm), in diameter. Open burners should be turned off when not in use to
conserve energy. Leaving a flame burning is of no advantage since the heat is
instantaneous.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Seasoning
Griddle
-
Remove all factory-applied protective material by
washing with hot water, mild detergent or soap solution. -
Apply a thin coat of cooking oil to the griddle surface,
about one ounce per square foot of griddle surface. Spread over the entire griddle surface with a cloth to create a thin film. Wipe off any excess oil with a cloth. -
Light all burners, set at the lowest possible setting. Some discoloration will occur when heat is applied to steel.
-
Heat the griddle slowly for 15 to 20 minutes. Then wipe away oil. Repeat the procedure 2 to 3 times until the griddle has a slick, mirror-like finish. Do this until you have reached the desired cooking temperature.
IMPORTANT: Do not set to a high position (on valve control) or 450° (on
thermostat control) during the “break-in” period
NOTE: Steel griddle surface will tone (blue discoloration) from heat.
This toning will not diminish function or operation and it is not a defect.
The griddle will not require reseasoning if it is used properly. If the
griddle is overheated and the product begins to stick to the surface it may be
necessary to repeat the seasoning process again. If the griddle is cleaned
with soap and water it will be necessary to reseason the griddle surface.
Cast Iron top Grates
First, remove the cast iron top grates from the range. Wash the cast iron top
grates thoroughly with mild soap and warm water. Dry the cast-iron top grates
thoroughly with a clean cloth. Immediately after drying, season the top grates
lightly with a non-toxic oil, (Liquid vegetable oil or Pam spray oil) WARNING;
DO NOT SEASON THE TOP GRATES WHILE ON THE RANGE TOP! Seasoning grates on the
range top over an open flame could cause a flash fire. After seasoning,
replace the top grates onto the range. Turn all the range top sections “ON
LOW”. Allow the top sections to burn in this manner for at least 20 minutes
before using pots or pans on the top grates. SEASONING OF THE TOP GRATES WILL
BE REQUIRED WHENEVER THEY HAVE BEEN CLEANED. FAILURE TO SEASON GRATES WILL
CAUSE RUSTING.
Stainless Steel
For routine cleaning, wash with a hot water and a detergent solution. Wash
just a small area at a time or the water will evaporate leaving the chemicals
behind and causing streaking.
Part # 4523104 Rev 3 (03/04/10) Rinse the washed area with a clean sponge
dipped in a sanitizing solution and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth before it
can dry.
Use a paste (of water and a mild scouring powder) if you have to, but never
rub against the grain. All stainless steel has been polished in one direction.
Rub with the polish lines to preserve the original finish. Then thoroughly
rinse as before.
To prevent fingerprints there are several stainless steel polishes on the
market that leave an oily or waxy film. Do not use on surfaces that will be in
contact with food.
Stainless steel may discolor if overheated. These stains can usually be
removed by vigorous rubbing with a scouring powder paste.
Use only stainless steel, wood or plastic tools if necessary to scrape off
heavy deposits of grease and oil. Do not use ordinary steel scrapers or
knives, as particles of the iron may become embedded and rust. NEVER USE STEEL
WOOL.
Either a typical bleach solution or hot water can be used to sanitize
stainless steel.
Oven Interior (Porcelain Enamel)
NOTE: Disconnect line cord (if applicable from the power supply before
cleaning or servicing.
- Before cleaning oven interior, remove all oven racks and guides (if “RC” base). Oven racks and guides can be cleaned with mild soap and warm water or run through dishwasher.
- The porcelain interior can be cleaned with oven cleaners such as “Easy Off, or “Dow Oven Cleaner”.
Follow the product manufacturer’s instructions for proper use.
Open Top Burners
Cleaning of the range top burner is a simple procedure, and, if done at
regular intervals will prolong the life of the range and ensure good flame
characteristics.
-
The most common problem with open burner ranges is spillage. Once the burner ports are partially plugged with food, the air-to-gas mixture is disturbed and results in an inefficient burner.
-
Wipe any spills as they occur.
-
Grids and trays should be removed daily, washed, rinsed and dried thoroughly.
-
Use a wire brush to clean the ports of the burners. Ignite
and check for clogged holes. -
If any clogged holes are apparent, the burner should be lifted out and brushed inside and out with a small Venturi brush. Each port on the burner itself should be cleaned with a properly sized wire or thumb drill. Wash with soap and hot water if grease is observed on the burners. Dry thoroughly.
-
6. When reinstalling the open-top burner head be sure the burner ports are lined up correctly to the pilot. On the cast burner head there is a raised indicator to ensure the burner is installed correctly.
-
If an abnormal flame appears around the edges, it is usually a sign of grease dirt in the throat of the burner. Remove the burner venturi (main body that the burner heads sit on) to access the air shutter opening. Remove grease and dirt from the air shutter area carefully. Do not adjust the shutter setting. The air shutter allows the proper amount of air to mix with the flow of gas coming in from your valve/thermostat orifice and should not be adjusted unless by a licensed gas fitter technician.
Cast Iron Top & Grates
Cast iron top and grate(s) can be cleaned with mild soap and warm water. For
baked-on material, a wire brush can be used. Dry thoroughly. Lightly coat with
vegetable oil to help prevent rust from forming.
Hot Tops
While the surface is still slightly warm, wipe it down with a clean burlap
cloth. Burnt-on spillage should be scraped off. If necessary, remove the plate
and wash in a sink with soap and hot water. Dry thoroughly. In damp climates,
wipe down with a light coating of oil to prevent rusting. Avoid excessive use
of water as this could damage the surface and the controls below.
NOTE: Steel griddle and hot top surface will “tone” (blue/brown
discoloration) from heat. This toning will not diminish function or operation

Griddle
To produce evenly cooked, browned griddle products, keep the griddle free from
carbonized grease. Carbonized grease on the surface hinders the transfer of
heat from the griddle surface to food products. This results in uneven
browning and loss of cooking efficiency, and worst of all, carbonized grease
tends to cling to grilled foods, giving them a highly unsatisfactory and
unappetizing appearance. To keep the griddle clean and operating at peak
performance, follow these simple instructions:
- AFTER EACH USE clean griddle thoroughly with a grill scraper or spatula. Wipe off any excess debris left from the cooking process.
- B. ONCE A DAY clean the griddle surface with a grill brick and grill pad. Remove the grease container and clean thoroughly, in the same manner as any ordinary cooking utensil.
- C. ONCE A WEEK clean the griddle surface thoroughly. If necessary, use a grill stone or grill pad over the griddle surface. Rub with the grain of the metal while still warm.
A detergent may be used on the plate surface to help clean it, but care must be taken to be sure it is thoroughly removed. After the removal of the detergent, the surface of the plate should be covered with a thin film of oil to prevent rusting. To remove discolorations, use a non-abrasive cleaner. Before re-using, the griddle must be reseasoned. Keep the griddle drain tube to the grease container clear at all times.
CAUTION This griddle plate is steel, but the surface is relatively soft
and can be scored or dented by careless use of spatula.
Be careful not to dent, scratch, or gouge the plate surface. This will cause
food to stick in those areas. Also, note, since this is a steel griddle if a
light coating of oil is not always present rust will develop on exposed and
uncoated areas.
